Brake cleaner. But you need to very careful as it can damage the surface on painted parts.

Ride safely,

Try S-100 Engine Detail Cleaner. It works really well and is safe for your Bike.

Do not use Easy Off Oven Cleaner. Some gizzwaad gave that advice on another site and I was dumb enough to try it. Do not use it!!
